The Kyo Wakoku of Nippon Shotou Teikoku is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by the Prime Minister with an even hand, and remarkable for its restrictive gun laws. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 15.383 billion have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of the Environment, Defence, and Social Welfare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nagoya. The average income tax rate is 85%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Tourism industry.

Nippon Shotou Teikoku successfully hosted the Lazarus Olympics, prime real estate is devoted to wind farms and solar energy generators, all telephone traffic is monitored for 'national security reasons', and government officials have to mortgage their homes to make ends meet. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nippon Shotou Teikoku's national animal is the ryu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the yen.

Nippon Shotou Teikoku is ranked 1,394th in Lazarus and 54,873rd in the world for Most Income Equality, scoring 125 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
